The 3D catalog: game boxes on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalog in 3D

The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

How it feels

Exploring a cartoon post-apocalyptic city, smashing zombies with a baseball bat while aiming for a high score feels lighthearted and playful.

What players say

Players describe it as a very simple game where you only walk, run, jump, and hit zombies with a bat. The repetitive combat and awkward camera are common complaints, though some enjoy the atmosphere, outfit options, and the challenge of achievements.
